Gee Mr. Whooppee
Let's turn on the way back machine today. 'Member the days when you'd raid the ole fridge and sneak a few of your dad's Natty Bohs or RWBs or Pabst before headin' out to wander about with your bunks? Long time ago. Drinkin' age shot up to a "legal" 21 and so did the taste of the "studlies". Instead of the "cheap stuff" , dudes were out imbibing on some Lowenbrau, Michelob and Heineken. Been to the local liquor outlet lately? There are so many beers to choose from...the classics, the premiums and loads of microbrews. If you have some greenbacks in your pocket there is a beer out there for you! Whoa Nelly! I stood in front of the wall of coolers of beer the other day and was mesmerized. You got your Bud, Bud Lite, Bud Ice, Bud Lite Ice and so on. Some of the microbrews have some really different packaging which makes them stand out. Woodchuck, Saranac, Clipper City....yum. Surprisingly, I checked the cooler and there was NO Natty Boh to be found. I left the location and drove around and on my third stop found a 12 pack of Natty Boh in cans. Took 'er home and swilled down some old cold Boh - used to be the beer of Baltimore - and closed my eyes....and the way back machine took me back to 1975 underage, long haired, tee shirt, funky jeans and a girl named....
Stankass out.
